Sir, I can see why wild oysters are so expensive. That is defiantly hard work.

My dad worked as an oysterman for many years out of Deep Creek in Virginia. He still lives near it.

Very lucky to have that high of a limit. New Hampshire lowered their limit from 1 bushel per person per day to 1/2 bushel per day a few years back to replenish supply and like you said some years the "spat" is loaded on old shells and years later/there are all dead. 75 mile drive one way for me to the coast to go oystering. But i could hand rake my limit of 1 bushel in 15-45 minutes flat.

Tonging used to be the prefererd method in Gavleston Bay back in the day. I know of a few people who tong down west but the majority of oystermen use dredges. BTW since Ike, Texas oystermen are restricted to 90 bags per day. East Bay was reopened for oystering this year. The state has spent the last couple of years starting new oyster reefs using river rock as substrate and they are just now going to dredge the mud off the reefs that were smothered by the hurricane.

the state has stripped watermen of their natural oyster bars . Maryland would rather cover them with concrete rubble then see watermen work
